  1. Poll 6 Dec 4

    President Trump continues to pressure Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro to leave office. Which comes closest to your view on what to do about Maduro?

    44% — Keep up the military pressure campaign. The U.S. has Maduro right where we want him. He will step down eventually.

    “From the 1970s until the late 1990’s Venezuela was the wealthiest country in South America, under a stable democratic system. Since then, under the authoritarian regimes of Victor Chavez and the election-stealing, drug-d…”

  3. Poll 8 Nov 21

    After years of inflationary spending and economic mismanagement under Biden, President Trump is now working to course-correct the economy. But has the damage been too deep to unwind quickly? Or are you starting to feel early signs of improvement? We want your honest assessment — how does the economy

    48% — I see early signs of improvement under Trump, but prices are still a challenge.

    “The Socialist Left loves to play word games. Under the nightmare of the “Auto-Pen” administration, inflation reached an annual rate of 9.1% in June of 2022, which was a 40-year high. But the ostriches on the left who d…”

  4. Poll 9 Nov 14

    The U.S. mint will no longer make the penny. Which most closely matches your view on this decision?

    63% — It is the right decision from a fiscal standpoint, as it now costs four cents to mint each penny.

    “I hear people saying it’s a good thing the penny is going away, because it cost more to mint than its value. But now it’s the penny, next it’s the nickel, then the dime… it’s proof the money is becoming worth less and…”

  5. Poll 10 Nov 7

    Which statement best reflects your view of self-proclaimed democrat socialist Zohran Mamdani’s election as NYC mayor?

    50% — A troubling indicator that younger and urban voters are embracing socialism at levels that pose long-term risks to America’s constitutional republic.

    “Tuesday’s election proves that “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS) is metastasizing throughout America. This feverish hate of a man who has accomplished so much and continues to do so to make America (and the world) safe,…”

  6. Poll 11 Oct 31

    Should families or legal guardians have the right to install surveillance cameras in their loved one’s nursing home room to help protect against abuse—while ensuring the resident, if able, always has the final say?

    52% — Yes

    “Isn't it a shame that this question even has to be asked?! It's a disturbing sign of what our society has become. You can't trust the schools/teachers/principals; you can't trust the nursing homes; you can't trust the…”

  7. Poll 12 Oct 24

    President Trump’s latest White House project is the construction of a grand ballroom to host visiting dignitaries. Democrats are disparaging this project. Which statement below best describes your opinion of this project?

    77% — Strongly support. This is a magnificent idea that reflects American exceptionalism while keeping the White House historically relevant.

    “Trump takes no salary as our president. Does not get credit for that He has stock market at record levels. Again no credit. He makes decisions to safeguard cities from crime, again no credit. He gets a peace plan go…”

  8. Poll 13 Oct 17

    Democrats are holding another round of "No Kings" events to protest President Trump's policies. What do you think of these protests?

    62% — It’s the same script every time: the Left throws a tantrum when they lose at the ballot box. Trump was elected, not crowned, and calling him a ‘king’ just shows how unserious these protests are.

    “The nonsense that Trump’s presidency is teeming with tyrannical unchecked power and overreach is laughable. His “kingship” cannot flourish with a lying biased media and unelected judges who are relentless about undermini…”

  9. Poll 14 Oct 10

    President Trump has negotiated an historic peace deal between Israel and Hamas among other peace deals yet was not recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize for 2025. What are your thoughts?

    41% — The global elites appear determined to never award Trump that prize.

    “Today's announcement proves that the Nobel Prize is worthless. Barack Obama did absolutely nothing and this same group awarded him the Prize. I'm a black man who served this country as an Enlisted Marine and an Army Ch…”

  10. Poll 15 Oct 3

    Which best matches your view of the current government shutdown?

    47% — <strong>Democrats are to blame, but the shutdown is necessary</strong>

    “When is the last time you witnessed Congress followed the actual federal budget process? Well, it was in 1997. Since then, Congress has employed partisan options of omnibus spending packages, and continuing resolutions (…”

  11. Poll 16 Sep 26

    Jimmy Kimmel was recently reinstated as host of his late-night TV show after being suspended for spreading falsehoods about the alleged killer of Charlie Kirk. Supporters claim his suspension trampled on free speech, while critics argue he got what he deserved. What do you think?

    58% — The suspension was justified. Public figures must be held accountable for lying.

    “This is NOT a free speech issue! ABC is a private business organization and has the right to release an employee for low ratings and for losing the business large amounts of money each year. The left wants to blame the…”

  12. Poll 17 Sep 19

    Trade and tariffs have dominated headlines in 2025. Which of these come closest to your view of international trade? Select two maximum.

    52% — America should continue taking a leadership role by setting fairer standards for international trade, even if that means playing “hardball.”

    “Throughout President Trump’s first term, as well as thus far in his current term, his political enemies have underestimated Trump’s winning ways – especially when it comes to the economy. Trump tackles trade the same way…”
